Yeah, isn't it great?
It is, but the rest of the movie isn't.
he disagrees
Don’t these sissies believe men are women?
but he did have an introduction and he said two whole lines
Actions speak louder than words
And yet remains the most memorable character introduced since ROTJ.
have you heard the dialogue in these movies? he's the best character simply because he never talks.
you forgot
>the best OST in the entire saga starts playing
this was kinography, RLMgays forever seething and trying to rewrite history
The duel between the jedi and maul was always beloved, to be fair.
this is the song i remember and i watched that movie like 20 years ago at a relatives house. its that good man
>genocides gungans the entire film
And they're supposed to be the bad guys.
>Goofy kid movie
>They don't start acting silly until the edgy teen sequels.
sex with battle droids
>sword
>has one line in the movie that states his motivation
>attacks the jedi with two-bladed lightsaber to visually show his aggression and hatred
>200 IQ film critics: "huh? what's happening? who is this character? I'm so tired of lightsabers, of course he has a DOUBLE lightsaber, ugh..."
>first film in a six part series has to introduce the Jedi, their role in the universe, what they can do, how they function, what the force is
>"FRICKING LIGHTSABERS REEEEEEEEEEEEEE WHERE'S HAN SOLO AND DARTH VADER WHAT THE FRICK ARE MIDICHLORIANS"
It was the fourth film in the six-part series, anon.
prequeltroons are sub 100 IQ please forgive them.
troons? I don’t get it, what makes you think troons like the prequels and not freaking out and calling you a bigot for not consuming the sequels? you’re literally the troon here lmao
>"number go higher so order is 1-2-3-4-5-6!"
George Lucas is smarter than you. Be humble.
1-2-3-4-5-6 is actually George Lucas's intended order.
I'm humble enough to admit my error.
The intended viewing order is 1-6
The intended viewing order is 4 5 1 2 3 6
If you can explain how 5 and 1 flow into eachother I’d be impressed
4 is the world introduction, 5 shows the resistance against the empire Vader reveals to Luke that he is Luke's father, sudden shift to the republic right before its fall, only thing we recognize is r2 and Obi wan, then other characters get introduced, we see Anakin's change from promising upstart to Vader, then we wrap it back up with a flash forward to the end of the empire with 6. 5 also ends on a cliffhanger (Han being in the custody of Jabba, Empire wins, etc). It really does work
>4 is the world introduction
ANH's world is too different from the prequels.
Roger Roger Robots and Darth Maul were the best parts of Phantom Men's Ass
>gets his legs cut
>too angry to die
>only wants one thing: kill KENOBEEEEEAAAH!
Cinematography can be a very quick and convincing communication device, right? Darth Maul is practically silent the entire film, and yet you fully understand his character.
>The death toll is catastrophic.
Um, how? Were the Trade Federation openly slaughtering Naboo citizens in the streets?
Yes
The very next line is "its a trick"
the intended viewing age of star wars is 1-6
They really fricked up with Darth Maul. He's got a great design and screen presence. They needed to have kept him alive for the entire prequel trilogy and they would of had a very memorable villain. Instead we get Dooku, an old fart that comes out of no where and Grievus, a coughing robot. Both of them are fricking terrible and moronic.
Maul wasn't Vader but he could have been up there.
Dooku is kino. Cope.
>Your swords, please. We don’t want to make a mess of things in front of the Chancellor.
I always misremember the chanting as lining up with him extending his lightsaber blades
Not even a fan of darth maul but it doesn’t get more based than that.
>is cooler
>is sexier
>strictly better lightsabers
>better backstory

the Maul fight is really the only good part of TPM but it’s disappointing that it’s still made imperfect by the flippy shit
like if George toned down the choreography the entire fight (Duel of the Fates, Maul, Quigon dying, etc) would’ve been perfect. But the fight itself loses its weight and just looks silly at times. Also the speed of the fighting makes how Obi killed Maul not make sense either. Why does Maul go from a super computer in how he can process things to paralyzed once Obi Wan does the backflip thing?
>Why does Maul go from a super computer in how he can process things to paralyzed once Obi Wan does the backflip thing?
It was a clever strategy that affected Maul in two ways. First, the backflip is a type of spinning move, which everyone knows is a good trick. Second, if briefly gave Anakin the high ground, which combined with the spin was able to break Maul's confidence just long enough for Anakin to make the kill strike.
>summer of 1999
>11 years old
>take a road trip to New York State to see my grandparents
>saw The Phantom Menace 3 times in theaters with my dad
>also saw Jurassic Park 3
>spent the rest of the time swimming in Lake Erie, having water balloon fights and grilling with my parents
That was the best summer ever.
New York trash is not allowed in our lakes. Please refrain from dirtying them in the future.
Liar!
Anyone else seeing it in theaters for the 25th anniversary next month?
I’m honestly more hyped for this than any other new movie coming out.
